2 ways to get to that spot:
1. The walking way - Park up at the hotel by the roundabout just after the runway tunnels. Walk south towards the red triangle walking on the footpath behind the fire station. Walk down the path to the river, cross over the bridge and follow the river through the tunnel. After you come through the tunnel turn immeadiately left and walk up the hill following the footpath. You'll then be on the right side of the runway. Walk down the footpath until you find a spot you like. Best places are opposite the red triangle [approx 15 mins walking time from hotel].
2. The driving way - From the AVP/Romper head towards the tunnels going under the runway. Just before the first tunnel there is a right hand turning signposted for Ashely (I think?). Turn down here and follow the road for several miles. You will find yourself driving away from the airport. Eventually you will reach a T junction with a Mitsibishi garage. Turn left here and follow the road for several more miles. The turning you are looking for is Wood Lane on the left. Turn into Wood lane and follow it. About half mile down follow it round to the right (not straight on). Follow it to the end. Just before the crash gate turn left and follow the lane. There are parking bays down this lane. Leave car and walk down lane looking for the gate that lets you get onto the footpath next to the runway. Walk around the back of the reservoir and head down to your chosen spot [Driving time from AVP 10-15 mins; Walking time 10 mins].
Alternatively.....type Wood lane into a sat nav of your choice and let it get you there
